Jumbo Games has announced that it has signed a new licence deal with Hallmark for Forever Friends, and will launch two puzzles next year within the Falcon de luxe portfolio.
Bringing the bears to the puzzle market, Jumbo Games will first launch a 500-piece puzzle complete with a free greetings card in January 2014. June 2014 will see the introduction of a 1,000-piece puzzle with a free Forever Friends plush bear.
Katherine Pierce, marketing manager at Jumbo Games, commented: “Forever Friends is an exceptional brand and market leader in the gifting arena, and we are thrilled to add it to our licensee portfolio. Whether for Mother’ Day, a birthday or other special occasion, these puzzles offer broad appeal ensuring the perfect gift idea for any puzzle fan.”
Julie Michell, European licensing manager for Hallmark, added: “It’s an exciting time for Jumbo to be joining Forever Friends with a wealth of activity and exciting plans for 2014. We’re really looking forward to seeing the puzzles launch and to be working with such a strong partner.”
